Popped collars, it seems, have consequences that at least one fashion victim is unwilling to bear. Michael Minelli has reportedly sued the author of "Hot Chicks With Douchebags" for featuring a photograph of him. The photo and accompanying derisive prose, Minelli complains, have exposed him to "hatred, contempt and humiliation" at the hands of friends and coworkers. Truth is a defense to a charge of libel, so some patriotic jury might have to determine whether Minelli is, in fact, a douche bag.
